These are epidemiological studies. The control group is a large sample of the general population and variables are controlled through logistic regression models to find the association of the variable desired. You're right, everything causes cancer. We live so long on average that inevitably some cancer will form. Just don't worry about it and get /fit.

hi /fit/
after a first looonnng cut , i will start my first lean bulk in 3 weeks , and plan to do the "intermediate workout plan" by scooby.
i choose to do this because i only have dumbells for now, and will propably buy a small 120cm bar, i dont have much place so i cant get a long bar and a rack/bench.
anyway, my problem is:
i dont have a pullup bar, what excercices could i do instead to train my lats?
thats the routine btw http://scoobysworkshop.com/intermediate-workout-plan/
pls respond
I'm doing the intermediate for about 5 months now and imho you're fucked without a pull-up bar.
>>36630822
what if i replace the things requiring a pullup bar by bent over row or dumbell pullover?
is it fuckin safe to run 8km. cardio after 2 days of drinking? need to clean those toxins out
>>36630450
>is it fuckin safe to run 8km. cardio after 2 days of drinking?
No, you'll get mugged.
Is it safe to let her bounce her ass on my face?
Don't do it right after you finish drinking.
I ran 10 km after three days of drinking beer, eating crisps and playing vidya with something like three hours of sleep.
I couldn't keep a very good speed at all, got a stinging in my side after the fifth kilometer, and I just felt like dying all the time.

Is a 1pl8 OHP with strict form, for 8-12 reps, considered "impressive" to normies and gym casuals?
If they never lifted a weight in their life theyll prob have no idea how heavy that is until they try it themselves. So not really.
Most of the people on /fit/ are hardcore gym rats. So to the average person anything over like 185 bench or 95 overhead looks impressive.
Even at my old college gym it was rare to see someone doing over 225 bench.

Pssssst I can squat more than that

Can you ever make up for a waisted youth?
definitely. once your start living a good life you won't care about what happened in the past. you'll be too busy enjoying yourself.
it goes both ways, though. if you're going through a miserable phase it doesn't help much if you used to have a good life.
>>36630239
not possible
but you should still do as >>36630281 says for the most part
>>36630239
How old are you?
I was wondering who has it easier?
Fatties or skellies trying to get /fit/.
I'm an ex-fatty who never had a problem hitting his macros, but I am aware many fatties struggle with eating at a deficit.
>>36629985
Eating more is hard
Eating less is hard
Fatties have it easier for strength gains but skellies look aesthetic far more quickly
Fatties need to stay disciplined despite the fact that they will look like absolute shit for a good long while before anybody starts giving a shit.
Skellies start getting ottermode mires really quickly, which pumps you up mentally and makes you want to keep going.
Depends.
If you're machinist tier skelly then you're fucked and being super morbidly obese is just as bad.
Muscle Memory; apparently it's not broscience from what I've read. Now, what I have problems with is figuring out how long it lasts.
I've read that muscle memory last anywhere from 3 years to forever. I've even seen anecdotal evidence of people getting back into shape after many years of layoff.
What does /fit/ think about Muscle Memory? Perhaps anyone has any experiences with it after a not working out for a while?
I used to be in decent shape back in hs, lifted 110kg 5x5 bp, about 180kg 5x5 or so squat (can't remember exact number),...

I'll try to explain this as easily as possible.
Basically, when your muscles grow, your muscle cells expand in size. Once you stop lifting, they remain in this state for a while before they begin to shrink. However, since they have been in an enlarged state, they are stretched.
Imagine a fat dude losing all his weight. He is left with loose skin, since it has been expanded before from the inside. It would be easier for him to get fat again, since his skin is stretched already. There is no need for the cells to adapt and grow if he gains weight again.

It's not what you did, but how long it lasted.
Old-time wrestlers, born in the 20s and 30s will advance like fucking crazy when introduced to lifting in their 80s.
Guys who lifted a few years, went on a break longer than they lifted and then lift again, won't get shit.
'Muscle memory' is the broscience way of saying 'large number of nuclei in your muscle cells left over from sattelite cells merging to repair damaged muscle'
If you were physically active for 15-20...

Also, this guy is so full of shit, he sounds like a HAES or Vegan dipshit, only he speaks pure bro.
And he injured himself doing deadlift. Who the fuck does that?
What does /fit/ think about chewing gum? Does it impact health in any negative way? I chew about 5 gums in a day
>>36629915
I hate being near someone chewing gum. All the gross chewing noises they constantly make disgust me. I also hate chewing gum myself.
Chew tobacco you slack jawed faggot.
>>36629934
personally i don't make any noises when chewing gum and i rarely hear someone do, i think that person would have to be retarded to do so
Who reached /elite/ status here?
Currently stuck at 195 and it's driving me insane. Any tips?
>>36629869
I have im really strong
Look at that heffer in the background doing strength training instead of taking her fat ass outside for a jog
>>36629890
She could be endomorph and you don't know how much she lifts. She could be strong af we don't know.
i have 5k right now in stocks. i want to have a 3k budget for a home gym; just need to buy a home first! (19 y.o in uni rn)
I want everything brand new ( i know its cheaper to get stuff on kijiji) but im a bit picky.
so far ive come up with a shopping cart on rogue:
axle bar
deadlift bar
400 lb steel plates
wallmount rack
wallmount bar holder
that comes to 2100 dollars. just need to get an adjustable bench (ill find that on kijiji; theyre way overpriced on rogue). i already have dumbells and bands, etc.
anyone have any advice on making a home gym? experiences, pros and cons?
I just made mine out of wood in the garage. I got everything including pullup bar and dip bar and 6 plates (and 100 pounds in smaller plates) for around 700.
Amazon is usually pretty cheap. I was getting the plates for 25 bucks when they sold out after I bought 3 for 50
The only downside if you can call it that is you have to go since it's right fucking there
>>36629847
I also just figured its a good investment since it would be SO much easier to hit the gym after work or before work, no travelling to gym , no waiting for equipment etc
I made my home gym for less than $400
I have 2 oly bars, an adjustable bench, two squat stands that have bench press height attachments, and 180 lbs of cast iron plates (I will buy more when needed)
Plus I bought some proper shoes
I have only been lifting for about 6 weeks so it was a small investment compared to spending $30 a month for a gym membership, after a year or so I would have paid the cost of my home gym and not have to pay any more
plus the weights are always available and I don't ever have to deal with people in a public gym
Hello guys i have been training for about 3 years with 5-6 day split routine. I have heard that training each body part twice a week is going to work better for natty lifters...so i made 4 day program: Mon(upper)/Thu(Lower) Wed (rest) Thu(upper) Fri (Lower) do you think it will work better?
How about telling us which exercises you plan to do
I've been running exactly that for quite some time now and I really like it. Except the no upper body pump on lower days.
Yes, especially if you use mostly barbells.
How far did you run over the weekend, /fit/?
you... do... run on your rest days, right? well you do cardio as well as weights... right?
Anyway, i ran between 13 and 14 kilometers, my work out diary is in my car. I run in 5 minute intervals and do body-weight or stretching in between them
>running
>not just doing brisk walks
Enjoy your fucked knees and zero benefit over walking.
>>36629795
>lifting heavy
>not just lifting less weight for more sets
Enjoy your fucked knees and zero benefit over high volume.
>>36630319
But that makes actual difference. Cardio is cardio, only real difference running has over brisk walks is it takes slightly less time. Also walking doesn't require special clothes and shoes.
Is 2200-2400 calories per day while doing compound 3 times a week,accessory twice and cardio once a week good enough for me to escape skinnyfat mode? i'm 180cm 75 kgs
male by the way
>Pic unrelated
>>36629670
Each training session is about 40-60 minutes long
